Lavish…

 


Lavish…


The word lavish, itself, just sounds extravagant…abundant, pouring over…


Reading 1 John 3, I just let the words pour over my mind, soul…what promises, what great love…even in the down and hard times, those words are an encouragement…God loves us…he doesn’t forsake, leave us in the dust, turn his back….he lavishes…


Thank YOU….


 lavish-expending or bestowing profusely, expended or produced in abundance, marked by profusion or excess…Merriam Webster.


See what great love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God! 

And that is what we are! 

The reason the world does not know us is that it did not know him. Dear friends, now we are children of God, and what we will be has not yet been made known. 

But we know that when Christ appears, we shall be like him, for we shall see him as he is. 

All who have this hope in him purify themselves, just as he is pure.

1John.3.1-3


 Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in the heavenly realms with every spiritual blessing in Christ. 

For he chose us in him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in his sight. 

In love he predestined us for adoption to sonship through Jesus Christ, in accordance with his pleasure and will— to the praise of his glorious grace, which he has freely given us in the One he loves. 

In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the riches of God’s grace that he lavished on us. 

With all wisdom and understanding, he made known to us the mystery of his will according to his good pleasure, which he purposed in Christ, to be put into effect when the times reach their fulfillment—to bring unity to all things in heaven and on earth under Christ.

Eph.1.3-10


 Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over, will be poured into your lap. 

For with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.”

Luke.6.38


Behold what manner of love….
